WHEN WOMEN THRIVE, BUSINESSES THRIVE

Despite overwhelming evidence that engaged female talent is a key driver of competitive advantage, workplace diversity remains a challenge. Standalone and well-intended programs and policies are not advancing gender diversity. It’s time for tangible solutions, not just talk. It’s time for holistic programs and policies that consider and support the health, wealth and careers of women across every phase of their professional journey.

Women, who continue to be underrepresented at most levels in the workforce, are not progressing in their careers despite two decades of organizational efforts to achieve gender diversity and equality, according to new global research from Mercer.
